BEIJING (Reuters) - Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao is "concerned" with the financial crisis in the United States but he played down comparisons with the Great Depression, comments reported in state media on Wednesday. Wen, who made the remarks last Wednesday at a meeting with U.S. business leaders and economists in New York, added that he still has confidence in the U.S. economy. http://www.reuters.com/article/naturalResources/idUSPEK32977420081001?sp=true
